Description
These Deviled Strawberries are a quick and easy party treat filled with a cheesecake-style cream. Perfect as a fun finger food for birthdays, holidays, and gatherings.
Ingredients
- 18–24 large strawberries
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2/3 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (optional)
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
1. Prep the strawberries by cutting off the stems and slicing them in half. Slice a small sliver off the back of each half so they sit flat. Use a melon baller to hollow out a small indent in the center of each.
2. In a medium bowl, beat the whipping cream until stiff peaks form (about 5 minutes).
3. In a separate bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth.
4. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
5. Fill a piping bag with the cream cheese mixture and pipe it into each hollowed strawberry half using a star tip.
6. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the top of each filled strawberry.
7. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Want to make them low carb? Use a low-carb sweetener and skip the graham crackers.
The amount of filling you’ll need depends on strawberry size; extra filling can be eaten with a spoon!
The cream cheese mixture can be made a day ahead and still keeps its texture.
Strawberries can be prepped the day before—store in an airtight container with a paper towel to prevent sogginess or odd refrigerator taste.
